March 2007 - Skiing in Meribel, France

Around May last year Simon's work mate, Adam, signed a bunch of people up to a skiing trip for a week in Meribel, France. Almost a year later, we finally found ourselves in the "Matterhorn" chalet. 12 boys, 4 girls, only 5 skiers and the rest snowboarders. Glen and I had some skiing lessons during the week and we "pootled" with Robyn, Liz and Simon the rest of the time. A fabulous week in a gorgeous setting.
